Most State, Federal and county work today is done on margins of profit roughly equal to the margins |received in private business. n Still, when tax bills come around, most of us are | inclined to balk and squirm. Yet we would not de- | prive ourselves for an instant of the services our taxes buy. We wouldn't deprive ourselves of good streets and roads; of fire protection; of police pro- tecton; of any of the orderly processes of government which taxes finance. When taxes increase, it is popular demand which We, as a nation, constantly clamor for more and more in the way of government vice.

On Paying Taxes (Cincinnati Enquirer) Queer, isn't it, taxes? The feeling stems from a distant day when taxes were a tribute to overlords and went primarily toward increasing the tremendous wealth of the ruling families. Precious little of those early taxes ever were returned to the people. But today the system has changed. It would be impossible today to find anyone in political life who gained wealth from his sal as a public official. Now and then there are instances where unscrupulous how people resent the payment of | us in one form or another. Unfortunately we have come to accept the services of government as we accept the air we breathe something which costs nothing. Perhaps if we &tudied more closely our political processes, we would realize that in our present-day civilization everything costs money—even the water we drink; even—if it is pure—the air we breathe. There is but one way to raise that money {through a system of taxation. Either we pay, or we return to our primeval state, when every man wrested his living from nature, and when civilization hadn’t vet begun dawn in the minds of the primitive human race. to | World Bank | Washington Post) In making Mr. Harold D. Smith Vice-President of the Bank of International Reconstruction and Development, President Eugene Meyer has raided the very top drawer of American officialdom. Mr Smith has been our Director of the Budget since 1939. It is a position without any analogy in the practice of other gov nents. This much can be said: an ir quirer into what makes our Government tick would | eventually wind up in the office of the Bureau of the Budget. Mr. Smith, as the head of it, has been a | combination of business manager and secretariat for the executive branch He is, therefore, uniquely |equipped for the world bank position. As a budget | officer he knows all about budgets, and the world bank, |when it sets up in business, must be ever watchful over the budgets of borrowing countries. He Kknows ;Gu\mmnent practice, too. For, aside from his intimate | knowledge of our Federal Government (nobody knows lit better than he does), he has had a rich experience | with governments on the State and local levels. The | confidence of the investing public in the new world bank will be fortified by the selection of Mr. Smith. . . | lindividuals fatten through contacts with divisions of We often declare | WMWW 20 YEARS AGO 7 from THE EMPIRE D e ] JULY 11, 1926 . .
